Nothing humbles diet culture more than being a neurodivergent single parent 🙃.

A new study publicised in the European Journal of Medical Research this month titled “Evaluation of microecological therapy in endometriosis through modulation of the gut microbiota” shines light on the potential for improved post-surgical outcomes in endometriosis patients.

The study by Qiao, Zhao and Wu retrospectively analysed 187 endometriosis patients who underwent surgery. One group was surgery-only while the other was administered a mix of probiotics and prebiotics.

Patients in the treatment group had improved gastrointestinal recovery, lowered post-op pain, less complications, and better quality of life compared with surgery-only controls. Inflammatory markers and estradiol levels were also decreased compared to controls.

Another example of the importance of gut microbiome modulation in conjunction with endometriosis care.

If this is something you want support with this is exactly what my online clinic is focused in.

Book your appointment through link in bio (P.S. rh next available isn’t until Feb 2026 however let me know if you’d like to go on my waitlist to get in sooner).

Because art is also therapy 🌊🖌️

Original inspiration from a video from

2 weeks ago I attended a surf retreat and one night we did some painting. I painted a jellyfish and it lit something inside of me. So when I got home the next night, I painted some manta rays. I was hooked.
The next day I ordered some new brushes, acrylics and canvases.

I then proceeded to paint a turtle.

Suddenly my algorithm was sending me ocean themes and sea animals. Suddenly I had a saved folder of “art inspo”.

Last night and all day today I painted these spotted eagle rays.

I’m obsessed.

I just really hope this isn’t just another ADHD hyperfixation that ends in 4 weeks. Please let this one stick 🙏🏽

N-acetyl L-tyrosine (NALT) for improving executive function and dopamine production.

NALT is a more bioavailable form of L-tyrosine.

On more days than not, I’ve found it to improve focus, reduce distractability, and improve overall mood.

Combined with mg-threonate and creatine monohydrate it’s quite a winning combo for me personally.

But as always, everyone’s different. So what works for me might not work for another.
Dosing is also different across the board so make sure you work with a health care practitioner to get it right and ensure there are no contraindications with other medications or conditions.

Would love to know if you’ve tried NALT?

If you’ve attended one of the hundreds of peaceful protests in the last two years, you’ll know how to finish this sentence.

If not, perhaps it could be time to go to one.

“We are all Palestinian”.
Pre 2023, this isn’t a sentence I ever thought I’d resonate with.
What does that even mean?

It’s inexplicable unless your eyes have also been opened, but I’ll do my best to try.

Growing up as a privileged white person in a colonised country where mainstream media is our primary news source, we’re drip-fed morsels of dehumanising content about “countries in the Middle East”.

The perfect example of this can be explained by the people who’d write comments under my pro Palestine content like “go to Palestine then, see what happens”.

It’s this deep indoctrination of dehumanising a whole race into making us believe they are a people to be feared.

But here’s what I’ve actually come learn and why I’d go to Palestine in a heartbeat if it weren’t for the occupation as it currently stands:

Palestinians have the most beautiful hearts. They lead with kindness and compassion. They open their arms to anyone and they cook with soul.

Through the last 2 years of unlearning and relearning, I’ve had the great privilege of meeting more Palestinians than I can now count. Every one of them I’ve met in person has given the greatest hug and warmest smile. You feel part of their family. The word “habibti” soon sbecomes a familiar sound that brings comfort every time.

I’ve spoken with Palestinians in Gaza and the West Bank and even FaceTimed a family sharing a tent.

The more I heard their stories, shared food and laughed with them, the more I realised how it’s *us* who have so many things wrong.

I regret to admit that I was pretty ignorant up until 2 years ago, despite being more progressive than most. Yet it’s not my fault and it’s not your fault. We only know what we know.

This is why I’ve tried so hard in the last two years to be that bridge and use my platform to help others see it too.

The question I constantly come back to is this - if that was me with my daughters displaced in a tent, what would I hope the world would be doing to save us?

If you’ve been planning to book in a naturopath consult with me and just haven’t gotten around to it, here’s a gentle nudge that I’m about to close my books to new clients until Feb 2026.

The last few months have really taken off in more ways than one and I’m so incredibly grateful.

But one thing that’s most important to me that I set out to maintain this year was to ensure I don’t overload my books so that I’m able to give every client the time they need and deserve - both in and out of consult.

My special interests are in endometriosis, infertility, SIBO, complex GI conditions and neurodivergence. More often than not, people are experiencing several or all at once.

As a neurodivergent individual myself, I know what it’s like to struggle when you have a consult with someone and then feel very lost in between consults. This is why I tell every new client - “never feel like you have to wait until your next consult to get answers to new questions and concerns”.

So again, this is why I aim to keep a sustainable number of clients so I can still give you all the time and care you have needed for so long.

If you’d like to book in just comment “consult” below or head to the link in my bio.

The “initial consult” option will soon disappear on the public-facing end next week. So book in now.

P.S. all consults are via zoom.

❤️

This might seem radical, but what if the missing link to your treatment plan was to actually do nothing at all for a month?

I don’t mean sit down for a whole month and not move. But I mean, pausing those supplements, relinquishing control over your food (unless there’s a legitimate reason such as allergies or intolerances), putting the self help books down and stop the seeking.

Of course if there’s that one or two interventions that you just know makes all the difference to your life - then keep doing it. But chances are you can do without that collagen supplement or avoiding seed oils for a month.

Instead of focusing on the microscopic interventions, go back to basics for a bit:

- Get good sleep
- Get outside
- Eat breakfast
- Drink water
- Connect with friends

That’s it.

See how you feel after and come back to me with the results.

I get what it’s like to feel like your health is a burden and like you’ll probably be “too much”.

But you’re never too much for me.

In fact, I love a complex case. It’s what drives me.

There is nothing more satisfying than being that person that finally got your answers and relief after a lifetime of dismissals.

And if there’s something I don’t know, I’ll go to great lengths to find the answer or refer on when something’s no longer in my scope of practice.

If this is the kind of support you want, you can book at the link in bio or comment “I’m complex” below.

Inspired by ’s original post, I thought I’d come in with a few more metaphors to drive the message home.

An increase in diagnoses doesn’t always equate to an increase in prevalence.

You only have to speak to all of us late diagnosed ADHD and autistic adults to know just how many of us SHOULD have been diagnosed decades ago.

And once you understand these neurotypes and how they present, you can look to history to see just how present autistic folk were - it’s glaringly obvious.

What’s most disturbing is that the claim of tylenol/paracetamol in pregnancy causing autism isn’t even remotely accurate. It’s laughable.

But what’s NOT funny is the harm this causes.
The guilt parents will now face.
And the risks people will put themselves in.

Let’s just hope the academics speak the loudest.

As I rotated around the 3 lecture rooms listening to one of 154 presentations madly taking notes, I also had a seperate running dot-point list of all my extra thoughts.

Here’s the thing, we can zoom in on the minutia of the latest research; exploring specific probiotic strains, prebiotic fibres and therapeutic foods and herbs.

But truthfully what it all still boils down to is that:

- A diet high in a diverse range of polyphenol-rich fibres is Queen 🤴
- The Mediterranean diet proves to be the most research-backed way of eating, again and again 🫒
- Microbiome manipulation and restoration should be at the centre of almost every treatment plan

Stay tuned for more info from the conference.

More photos from Rome.

- Conference photos from Probiotics, Prebiotics and New Foods 2025
- The one and only Aussie researcher speaking - PhD candidate .jaye speaking about the gut microbiome’s role on the response to immunotherapy in triple negative breast cancer
- A trip to Ostia Antica - a well preserved archaeological site of ancient Rome’s former port city
- Dr Jason Hawrelak showing me some herbs like wild carrot, the OG rocket and marjarom
- 2000-3000 year old communal toilets - fitting for the gut health theme.

If you’re doing Rome and want a day trip, take the train to Ostia Antica. You could roam around for hours finding all kinds of ancient treasures.

Rome, I’ll be back.
